At night, there was no wind, a faint bright moon hung in the treetops, and two teams, one large and one small, marched among the mountains.

Regarding the battle for command, it was not as Ryoko feared, the two of them fought on the spot, they already had experience, that is, each commanded its own, and no one could control anyone.

According to the order of the Special Commissioner, a consignment of goods will enter the territory of Xincheng from the north, and their task is to escort this cargo all the way west out of the defense area of the Xinqing detachment and then deliver it to the special commission's personnel.

Their task was not easy, and the whole journey had to pass through the two counties of Xinbei and Qinghe, and the whole journey was more than 200 miles. Although they are known as the Xinqing detachment and their areas of activity are also in these two counties, in fact, the distance they traveled on this escort mission was not in their own control area, but in the enemy-occupied area.

Generally speaking, most of their trips are in enemy-occupied areas, and the danger is dangerous, but these are all covert operations, and as long as there are no mistakes, the danger is not too great

Of course, it is better not to set up the flag too much, depending on the importance of the special commission and the detachment, the importance of the goods this time is still very high.

For the Eighth Route Army, the goods are saved by the military and civilians, so lives can be lost, and goods cannot be lost.

The independent squadron was ready to go when it received the order, and Qi Dajiu's second platoon, needless to say, was on the march itself, and they crossed the Xinqing Highway overnight and advanced to the meeting point.

In fact, this mission was originally issued to the independent squadron, and Qi Dajiu's second platoon said that they were going to fight guerrillas on the north side of the Xinqing Highway.

They walked all night, and when it was about to dawn, they hid in a small wood, and it was not easy to walk in enemy-occupied territory in broad daylight, and they had to stop and rest during the day before they could travel at night.

And you have to pay attention to the dog traitor at night, the dog traitor mentioned here is a real dog, the people of this era do it at sunrise and rest at sunset, and the people who act at night are basically eight roads, and the pseudo-personnel at night can find the whereabouts of the eight roads as long as they listen to the barking of dogs.

The fortress villages in the base area do not have dogs, but these villages in the enemy-occupied areas of New Taipei do have dogs, so they have to avoid populated villages as much as possible.

The Eighth Road in the enemy-occupied area can be described as frightening step by step, guarding against people during the day and dogs at night, Qi Dajiu, this bear thing, still stupidly thinks that this place in New Taipei is easy to treat, but the base area is opened up by those cadres of the work propaganda team who risked their lives to go to villages and households, not that wherever you go is your base area.

They rested for a whole day, and only when it was completely dark did they set out on the road again, rushing to the place where the order was given.

At midnight, under the dark and silent night sky, their team stopped at a three-way intersection.

"It should be this, there is such a fork in the road around here." Qi Da Jiusi under the moon looked carefully and said in a low voice.

"Huzi, map!" Zhang Yunfei ordered.

Huzi immediately took out a map and a flashlight from his satchel, and took out a piece of cloth to cover the light, in this era, in addition to the starlight, the earth is dark, and a little light can travel far away.

Seeing Zhang Yunfei acting like this, Qi Dajiu's face turned black, especially this guy is a cow, I don't know if people still think he is a big officer and commander, look at this guy, the black light is blind, you look at Mao's map, you can see something, isn't it just to show that you have a map.

Zhang Yunfei is really not a set of music and sneering, war is no trivial matter, details determine life and death, the professional quality of the devil soldiers is very high, there are many special shooters in their army, that is, equivalent to snipers in later generations, they specialize in hitting each other's commanders.

So a commander on the battlefield is very sassy is basically looking for death, fortunately, the Eighth Route Army does not have officer clothing and ranks, and it is the same on the battlefield, of course, the telescope barge gun map package in this era is also the standard configuration of officers, Zhang Yunfei naturally will not be stupid to bring these items with obvious identification.

The blurring of the identities of officers and soldiers on the battlefield can reduce the death rate of officers, and the death of an army commander is very demoralizing, although there are people to take over, but the replacement cannot control the troops in a short time, at least not as a command, and the tacit understanding between the commander and the soldier is long-term adaptation and running-in.

When the commander dies, it means that the battle is in a state of anxiety, and it is taboo to change generals on the spot, and the lack of tacit understanding between soldiers and generals can even lead to a fiasco in a battle.

The devils did not do a good job in this regard, their commanders, especially the low-level officers, the death rate was still quite high, Zhang Yunfei usually taught the soldiers, the first to ride horses (in addition to cavalry, the devils can only ride horses in other arms), and the second to machine gunners and knife-wielding ones.

Others say that he is good at posing music, or not, anyway, he will not bring any extra accessories to the battlefield, he doesn't even bring grenades, of course, not with grenades is indeed a bit of a suspicion of a frightened bird, especially his waist is always injured, and the small probability of a grenade being hit by a stray bullet is not a new thing on the battlefield (grenades are generally hung on the waist), and he can hurt a position, this luck is obviously very weak, or it is safer not to carry a grenade.

Zhang Yunfei's map telescope and other equipment are all trophies from the last attack on Huogou, and now he no longer needs to use a monocular, which can make Qi Dajiu envious, it is too special.

Last time, a Czech-style crooked handle was seized, and in the end, Zhang Yunfei left a crooked handle and handed it over. He also wanted to have one machine gun for each squad, but unfortunately he couldn't do it with the current ammunition of the independent squadron.

At present, a combat platoon of the main force of the front-line main force of the Eighth Route Army is only equipped with one machine gun, and it is already the limit for their independent squadron to be equipped with two machine guns, while only one Czech machine gun can be left, and the worst Czech type has to use seven or nine neutral bullets.

You must know that many of the puppet army in this place are also fucking using 65 rifles, our country's copycat ability is very strong, 65 rifles are actually the copycat version of the 38 big cover, of course, most of the Czech machine guns on the market are also copycat versions.

Zhang Yunfei was not very satisfied with the firepower of their squadron, but at present, it can only be like this, no matter how many machine guns they have, they can't afford the consumption of ammunition, which can be regarded as the most optimized ratio.

Their firepower is almost equivalent to the appearance of the main force, and the firepower of the Eighth Route Army is relatively poor among the anti-Japanese war troops, Qi Dajiu is envious of the firepower of their independent squadron, and he really has never seen the world's dirt buns, what a fuss.
